against effort habit quickness truly
Against that team, we're at a quickness disadvantage. So it makes it look like an effort disadvantage, when it truly is a quickness thing. And we don't have the habit or discipline.
weaknesses
I don't think they have many weaknesses. I didn't think they had many weaknesses before, either.
basketball best deserve fans home national night second
You should never play at home on the second night of back-to-backs. Your home fans deserve the best you can give them. If you need to, play all your back-to-backs on the road, and never on national TV. They've done that, and sometimes the basketball is not the best.
fan tough watch
If you're a fan that comes a lot, it's tough to watch right now.
deserve people rewarding taking
It's not who you're taking it away from. You're rewarding people who win, because those are the people who deserve to be rewarded.

That's where it starts ? get the effort so you don't beat yourself that way and then playing intelligent basketball. You just want to give yourself a chance to play your best. If you don't beat yourself in this league, you win a lot.

No message, it was pathetic effort by all five of them. We played three very good quarters. It was unfortunate that it was marred by an irresponsible third quarter.

There is no question that he will be competitive and high energy. But how effective he would be, really, I don't have any idea. We'll have to see.
trying winning
You know what? It's about winning in this league. It's not about trying - that should be a given.
beginning came couple fortunate good miss percentage quarter ready simple third
We came out ready to play in the third quarter. We were fortunate that they had a couple second-chance opportunities at the beginning of the quarter that they missed. Sometimes it's that simple - make or miss - and we made a good percentage tonight.
chances
We can still win. Obviously, your chances are better when you have your better players.
